For over a year now I have been watching my diet to combat high cholesterol and 4 months ago I got the thumbs up from my Dr. that I had succeeded in bringing it down to a comfortable level. Other situations in my life however had me depressed and my weight continued to go down because my appetite was... read full review »

Trazodone is very good for putting you to sleep and you don't usually really need very much to let it help you.  Trazodone is generally given to people for depression.  I currently have a problem with depression and was given other medication but then I was also having problems sleeping so my Doctor...

I had tried otc sleep meds and they did nothing at all for me.  I am ADHD and if I do not take something to help me sleep, I stay up all night thinking!  My regular physician tried me on Ambien and that was real freaky, because I would do things in my sleep and not remember doing them.  i.e. calling people, trying to drive, cooking.  It was really scarey.  My psychaitrist put me on trazadone and I have slept like a rock ever since!

I struggled with chronic insomnia for years, but it really started to impact my life when I began college. I was missing classes, assignments and social activities because I was so tired and ended up sleeping all day. I saw psychiatrists and sleep specialists that could not help me, and I was finally prescribed Trazodone after a few trials with different medications. This medication gave me my life back. I was able to sleep all night, every night, and in turn I graduated college with honors and went on to graduate school. Of course, this is a medication, not a miracle, and I do have to go to bed...

I try not to have to take tons of medications, so when my doctor wanted to prescribe Trazodone to me, I was hesitant.  He felt that myanxiety, mild depression and high stress levels were to blame for my inability to sleep through the night (an occassional full-blown insomnia), and after some disussion on the risks and benefits I agreed to give it a try.

I'm amazed and grateful for what this medication has done; finally, I can get a good nights sleep!  I don't take it every day, just once or twice a week, but even that infrequent usage has greatly improved my rest.  When I take it I don't...

   Trazodone really works.  It has other uses but I use it for insomnia. I have tried over the counter drugs, homeopathic route none of them worked for me. My doctor put me on Trazodone and my goodness it works , no side effects, no drowsiness in the morning, no hallucinations or sleep walking just a perfect night sleep whether it is four hours or six to eight hours it works.  It is a prescriptive drug but it does work... It has different dosages your doctor will be able to determine which is right for you...Try Trazodone it works!

Trazodone is used to treat depression and may also be used for relief of an anxiety disorder (eg, sleeplessness, tension), chronic pain. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor. Trazodone is an antidepressant and it is thought to increase the activity of one of the brain chemicals (serotonin), which helps elevate mood. You should not use Trazodone if:

  • you are allergic to any ingredient in Trazodone or nefazodone
  • you are taking sodium oxybate (GHB)

You should contact your health care provider or your doctor if this applies to you.

Before taking Trazodone some medical...

I use Trazodone every night to help me fall asleep.  I take anti-depressants which gave me insomnia, and then my doctor prescribed Trazodone.  I just take a low amount - half a pill - every  night, and it really helps me fall asleep.  No more anxious thoughts running through my head and keeping me awake.  I also like it because I know if I take it, I will sleep through the night.  I don't experience any kind of hangover effect with it at all.  It's a cheap medication, too, so even if you don't have insurance, you can afford it.  I think it's like $7.00 a month.  I also have a health plan...

After battling depression and insomnia for years and trying many different medications,

my doctor finally prescribed Trazadone for me.

I haven't had to deal with insomnia since then and it seems to have also helped to lesson

the symptoms of depression.

I find it to be a mellow mood elevator that puts me in a relaxed mode and then

eventually to sleep without a hangover upon awakening.

Trazadone insomnia medication is a joke. Not only did it NOT help me with my insomnia, but it made me feel wacky and slurred my words! Yuck!!

A lot of depression problems, which I deal with, are about looking ahead, not behind. Waking up with a positive outlook really does help.
